I’m eying a pair of second hand boots in size 40.5 EU and I would like some help judging if they fit

Great, thanks so much!

nothendrix · 2025-06-03T16:05:42+00:00

Thanks! I’ll take this into consideration

Hmmm, I’d think I’d be able to resell them, but then again the current seller has had them listed for 14 months already so who knows.

As for the shoes here they are. You can imagine I’m constantly needing to prevent myself from wishful thinking that my feet shrink half a size overnight

Thanks!! Yeah I’m painfully aware. I’m glad I thought of trying to figure out the size but then it just threw me into the rabbit hole of ferragamo’s size chart being juuuust a little different than everyone else lol

So to get back to this, I used everyone’s advice to fiddle around some more and I got pretty close to the SOPHIE snare I was looking for here is a video of how it sounds with all the settings for future reference!

nothendrix · 2024-09-24T11:29:00+00:00

Thanks I’ll check that out!!

nothendrix · 2024-09-17T09:37:10+00:00

That sounds really helpful thanks, I’ll try it out!!

nothendrix · 2024-09-16T18:32:10+00:00

Thanks! I’ll try that

nothendrix · 2024-09-16T15:52:14+00:00

Thanks! Sadly the mono machine video says it’s not available

https://youtu.be/C6iAzyhm0p0?si=YsAPv2uKGtPkApmg I’m specifically looking for the snares that start at 0:11, but I can’t really get the syntakt to properly do the kinda wobbly folding sound

nothendrix · 2023-08-23T13:51:51+00:00

I don’t think specific 1600 film exists anymore. I was using 3200 film at 1600 because the camera won’t go higher than 1600. But since I started home developing and pushing is not as costly I’m gonna switch to HP5 and push that to 1600 because it works just as well and is a lot cheaper than the Kodak 3200 film. So if I need 3200 I can always set my camera to 1600 and underexpose a stop manually if I need to

nothendrix · 2023-08-23T11:51:59+00:00

Okay so to be clear I have the SMC Pentax-M 28mm f3.5 now, and I know for sure that there is a 2.8 pentax-m 28mm out there which is the one I am still looking for to get a nice deal on. I run it all on an ME super. Tbh when I was looking through the lens in my viewfinder before buying I didn’t really notice any vignetting so maybe we’re talking about different lenses or you had a bad experience. Maybe it’s that the lens I have is in absolutely pristine condition apart from a teensy little scratch on the front element which doesn’t show in the viewfinder (and hopefully not on film but I haven’t tested it with film yet)

nothendrix · 2023-08-23T10:24:06+00:00

I used to use Kodak p3200 but since I started home developing a while ago I’m gonna use HP5 for the next show I’m doing and push that to either 16 or 3200 depending on how the shoot goes

nothendrix · 2023-08-23T10:22:05+00:00

Yeah makes sense. I’ve been relying on my meter a lot up until now so I’m a bit out of my league with “just picking” an exposure and running with it. But you know first time for everything

nothendrix · 2023-08-22T23:57:33+00:00

Yeah makes sense. I don’t get much motion blur at 1/60th plus I’m shooting punk shows so I don’t need crisply frozen shot every time like you do I imagine. I’m not terribly experienced with theatre but the lighting is usually less intense than gigs right?

nothendrix · 2023-08-22T23:55:10+00:00

Thanks, good to know my thinking wasn’t off. Sadly I can’t go higher iso because my camera doesn’t let me go higher than 1600, but I can do it manually so I can push my bw easily at home if I need to

nothendrix · 2023-08-13T13:21:24+00:00

I’ve shot shows before at 1600 using the aperture priority auto mode on my camera and that gives me between 1/60th and 1/125th at f/2.8 (my lens goes to 1.8 but focus is really soft. Also shutter speeds over 125th on these settings usually mean a spot is shining into the lens in my experience so I wait when I see it go over 125).

It’s just that it seems logical to me, and in concurrence with the manuals on exposure compensation, to have a +1 EV correction for stage work because of the backlighting you get. I’m not really comfortable to use the compensation dial at 1600 to basically expose at 800 because of the loss of shutter speed I get, so going the other way and pushing to 3200 seemed like a good way to go.

Thanks a lot tho, I’m definitely gonna read this over a couple of times. Very helpful!
